Archer Treacher Fish & Chips

3 c. boxed pancake mix
3 - 4 c. club soda
.4 oz. env. ranch flavor dressing mix
powder
2 - 3 fish fillets

With wire whisk combine the pancake mix and enough of the club soda that the batter is the consistency of buttermilk - pourable. Whisk in the ranch dressing mix. Dip the fillets into just enough plain all- purpose flour that you can coat them lightly but evenly. Let dry a few minutes on waxed paper. Dip into wet batter to coat lightly but evenly, letting excess batter drip back into bowl. Fry a few pieces at a time in 385 degrees oil, at least 3 inches deep in heavy sauce pan or electric fryer. Take out when golden brown.
